Probably the closest thing you can get to in terms of a "privacy" credit card. Everything about a credit card is tied to you by their very nature. So it depends on what or who you want privacy from.

Someone else mentioned privacy.com which I also use - it's good if you want to hide your transaction from the credit card company, or if you want to hide your identity from the merchant. But Privacy.com is more like a virtual debit card that connects to your bank account. Privacy.com still knows who you are.

HACK THE PLANET! THEY'RE TRASHING OUR RIGHTS!

It never ceases to amaze me how they mock Joe for speaking gibberish but then this seems to make complete sense to them.

Don't underestimate him. He may sound like an idiot to us, but we aren't his target audience. He doesn't care what we think of him. He knows what his cult wants to hear and he's plenty happy to chum the water to get them in a frenzy.

You are in a coma. We're trying a new technique to communicate with you. We aren't sure where or when this message will appear to you. You've been in a coma for 20 years. Please wake up. We miss you.

The fun thing about this is that we have evidence that this is how our reality works. The double slit experiment showed that particles change their behavior when observed. (Gross oversimplification and only under very specific circumstances but still extremely fascinating.)

Yes, but not even close to as much as the alternative.

And then the concept of "too big to fail" was born.

That's a good question. But keep in mind that there are significant taxes associated with selling a home in most places that would dissuade landlords from trying to game the system that way. Then again, they're just one more loophole from making that plan work.

But then how are news sources going to make otherwise mundane events sound noteworthy?

BTW, 100% of person making this reply voted Democrat, therefore everyone in the country will also vote democrat.

As long as they're peaceful, then pretty much, yes. A state university where the land is publicly owned (government "owned" property), it sounds like they were exercising their rights to assemble, speak, and petition the government...

It's not as easy as moderating individual posts. Remember, Lemmy is decentralized. If you start your own Lemmy server and I federated with it, I'll get all the stuff you post on my instance too (intentionally oversimplified).

Its up to you to moderate communities on your instance the way you see fit, and up to me to moderate mine. Even though our instances are federated, I can't moderate on your behalf. It just isn't feasible both in terms of the technology and in terms of the sheer volume of content you would have to try to moderate.

If you have a community that posts a mix of things I agree with and things I don't, I really only have a couple options on my end. Basically I can block that community on my instance or block your instance altogether.

The reason why someone might block a community may be more about the legal risk than any moral justification. Depending on where you are, it might be illegal to even host that information. And since Lemmy instances cache posts from other instances, it could be argued that because that community is federated with your instance, you're responsible for the content posted there.
